My good lords
Alicent Hightower (House of the Dragon episode 8)
Dear Me...
Have you ever thought about, in 100 years,
In 2123, everybody alive right now will all be dead and buried… Our friends, family as well as all our enemies.
Total strangers will live in our homes and on our lands that we worked long and hard to purchase and build. That's right someone will own in the future what we do now. Most of our possessions given away, thrown out or destroyed. Including the fortunes we spent on our expensive, luxury cars and will most likely scrapped. Our descendants most like not even remember who we are nor will they really remember us. I mean, how many of us now, remember our Great-grandparents. After we die, we may be remembered for a few years and then we may become a portrait on someone's mantel or wall. A few decades later, our life's history, photos and deeds disappear into history's oblivion. We won't even be memories. If we paused one day to think about and analyze these questions, perhaps we would realize how pointless it is for us to worry about ALL the things consuming our thoughts, life and energy daily. If we could only slow down long enough to think about this, surely our approaches, thoughts and actions would change in positive manners and we would then act differently. Perhaps we would feel more free to enjoy ourselves with more kindness and our lives we live.
Take these thoughts dear friends, into the rest each day, week, month, year and for the balance of your life remember this…
"If it won't matter in 5 to 10 years from now, don't spend more than 5-10 minutes being upset about it now."
It's a simple T.E.A. method.

So, from what I’ve understood from Kunikida’s tag, Bones is kind of... butchering his arc? Oh my God, that is just so unexpected, wow, I’m perplexed.
Dear Me...
You've been busy and life's thrown some major curve balls at you. You must always remember...
Life ISN'T about "liking" everything a person does or doesn't do... says or doesn't say... and setbacks aren't always bad.
Life IS about accepting and nothing more.
Once you get to a true mindset of ambivalence, que sera sera you will find your peace and be able to accept whatever is thrown your way.
THIS is your true inner power.
Your Inner Coach
Dear me...
Time is much more of a true commodity than any "thing" given...
Giving this commodity to the "right soul" is the key.
Most everybody is guilty of giving it away to those who don't respectfully appreciate this gift as it's freely given, for a multitude of reasons. However, this disrespect says tons more about them than it does you.
You're doing great... keep up the good work.
Your Inner Coach
Dear Me...
Hey there, it’s been a while since I last checked in on you...
Those demons keep showing up don’t they?
You’re doing your best, keep going.
Okay, so you mess up... don’t beat yourself up over it.
Keep in mind what Denzel said, "When a man is trying to change for the better, the worst thing you can do is keep reminding him of his past."
Let go of those dark voices. I know it’s tough at times...
You can’t be perfect, you can only better who you WANT to be.
Keep up the great work.
Your Inner Coach
Dear me....
You're doing great lately. Don't let the naysayers get you down.

What would happen if people didn't allow "circumstances" to dictate "feelings or emotions"?
What would happen if people didn't allow "emotions" to dictate "actionable reactions"?
Would this NOT be people making and "taking" positive "actionable choices"?
.
What would happen if people didn't "choose" to go down the "rabbit hole"... knowing it leads nowhere positive?
Would it not be better to choose to help others out? Which is what you generally offer to everyone as best you can daily.
.
Of course, they can always choose to remain down in misery of their own making. This is "their" choice though and not yours.
.
Keep moving forward and staying positive.
Your inner coach.
